An i5 should give you enough juice to power several VMs

For VxVM you'll need "Veritas Storage Foundation and High Availability for Linux" package which is available for free on Symantec web page (last time I checked it was a trial package, so not really "free").

by adding several disks to a virtual machine won't help you to achieve a functional cluster because disks cannot be deported to the other node . Solution is install openfiler OS which emulates a storage array as a VM and from there start allocating disks to targets , it has a really nice web interface to make your life easier . If you are interested how to do it please let me know i can help with that. Have a good day.
